Lonely King and Widow

Chapter 1018 The pit is 190 meters deep (2)
Wait, shackles?
She woke up from her imagining in astonishment, only then did she realize something was wrong.

From Xiao Qian to Shengdong, Jixi, Zongnan, and Chuangbei, all five people were shackled by the imperial army without exception, but no one came to "entertain" her.

Could it be that they thought the five big men were more powerful and dangerous, while she was weak and harmless, and it didn't matter whether she was in shackles or not?
With a smile, she looked at Yin Wenxi.

"Don't you look down on people?"

"...Eh?" Yin Wenxi was completely in a daze.

Mo Jiu raised her chin proudly, and stretched out her hands, "Where's mine?"

Who took the initiative to find handcuffs?

Yin Wenxi was stunned for a moment, glanced at her face dumbfounded, and said with a smile: "The order I received was to lead Xiao Qian's party to the capital for trial, and I didn't say anything about others..."

"Other people?" Mo Jiu didn't like the word, stared at him sideways, and said lazily, "I'm not someone else. I belong to Xiao Qian..."

After a pause, she looked at Xiao Qian with a half-smile, "My love."

The word "lover" made Yin Wenxi think for a moment before realizing what it was referring to.Presumably, he had already seen that Mo Jiu was a girl disguised as a man, and knew who she really was. When talking to Mo Jiu, he had a strangely flattering expression on his face.

"Miss Jiu'er, you, don't embarrass me."

"Make it difficult for you?" Mo Jiu laughed angrily, "Master, can you not be so naughty?" Let him be tied up, why is it so embarrassing?
"Oh oh oh..."

Yin Wenxi answered vaguely, with a big smile on his face, and made a "please" gesture with his hands outstretched.

"Miss Jiu'er, Xiao Shijun, please."

Please just please!

Although Mo Jiu very much hoped to wear the same shackles and walk the same distance as Xiao Qian, it was really inconvenient to carry that cold thing in winter.Especially when there are a lot of delicacies prepared on the official ship, if hands are inconvenient...

No!She shuddered suddenly.

Hands are convenient, and she can't eat it either.

Then who didn't say it: Those who are ambitious don't eat the food that comes from you!
People put so much food on the boat?Isn't it just to seduce her?Closing her eyes, she glanced at those tempting delicacies without moving her body, but she couldn't help but want to glance at them.

Xiao Qian was amused by her appearance.

He sat beside her, dressed in a neat robe, with a dignified temperament, every word, soft and pampering, "Ah Jiu, those who achieve great things are meticulous. If you want to eat, you can eat."

"Don't eat!" Mo Jiu insisted, as if he had a grudge against the food, "What if it's poisonous? I won't fall for their tricks."

"No." There was a hint of helplessness in Xiao Qian's smile, "They don't even want to put you in shackles, how can they be willing to poison you?"

The pronoun "they" he used seems to refer to Yin Wenxi.

But both he and Mo Jiu knew who they were talking about——

Mo Jiu looked at him silently, pursing her lips.

Suddenly, she kind of hated the feeling.

This is a kind of unhappiness that has never been experienced before.

In the past, she and Dong Ji "made friends through food". Because they had a common hobby and opinion on food, she always felt that Dong Ji was her bosom friend and confidant, and they had a strong resonance just like Boya met Ziqi.But now, because of being understood, the kind of acquaintance who was given food to make her give up her bottom line and integrity strangely hurt her nerves.

Blinking her eyelashes fiercely, she looked at Xiao Qian with deep and bright eyes.
